The Rock Star of Tennis: Polona Hercog

Polona Hercog is turning heads in the world of tennis. Not only is she tall, blonde, and beautiful but she has incredible ink on full display whenever she’s on the court.

Polona’s right arm is decked with a full black and grey sleeve with a skull, roses, angel wings, and a lantern – she’s got a sleeve in progress on her left arm too.

For those not familiar, Polona Hercog is a Slovenian tennis player who’s won four WTA Tour titles. She won the French Open in 2008 playing doubles with Jessica Moore and Wimbledon Championships junior titles in the doubles competition. She played in the final of the WTA Tournament in Acapulco at age 19, losing against tennis superstar Venus Williams. She then won the WTA Tournament the following two years.

According to http://www.nzherald.co.nz, Hercog joked that she hopes her tattoos are “intimidating for the other players, and she’ll take whatever advantage she can get as she prepares for her quarterfinal matchup.”

Outside of tennis, Polona likes to snowboard. Her favorite music is rock and pop and she loves sushi. Her favorite movie is The Godfather.
